This thing looks like it kicks ass. It's made for the disabled, but looks like it would be a fun recreational vehicle. It's really cool to see someone come up with something to help someone disabled this way to get back into the outdoors.
Be sure to watch the videos. I don't want to insult anyone but watching those videos just made me want to yell "Timmy!"

HAH! As if being disabled wasn't reason enough for people to aviod you, the mere thought them getting their feet crushed into paste by those treads will. Who's the mad scientist who came up with that one?
If I am ever disabled, I want one. With a gatling tennis ball cannon mounted on the side. The neighborhood pets and children shall fear me.
It also looks like there is room for a mini-fridge underneath...
Cool chair!
GO HERE (http://www.abcnews.go.com/Technology/story?id=1892996&page=1) to read about some even more bizarre chairs for the disabled.
(the tank chair is also mentioned)
There's a video to watch...check it out!

What you'd really need is wrist-mounted launchers. Then you could do a fair imitation of the Mandroid!
